Hi there!

Here are the important information we know:

Janie bought $15 worth of makeup

Janie spent $6 less than Leah spent


Steps to the answer:

If Janie spent $6 less than Leah, it also means that Leah spent $6 more than Janie.

If Janie spent $15 and Leah spent $6 more than Janie, you would have to add 6 to the amount that Janie spent :

$15 + $6 = $21


Your answer is: Leah spent $21 on makeup.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)
